Speech perception refers to the process in which speech sounds are heard, interpreted and subsequently understood. Research into the area of speech perception aims to gain an understanding into how humans listen to and recognise speech sounds, and then use that information to understand spoken language…

did not have it, the two spheres of our brain would be unable to transmit information to each other hence no communication would occur. Wernicke’s area: It is part of the cerebral cortex concerned with speech. .If it is damaged, we get Wernicke’s aphasia in which speech is fluent but does not make sense. The person uses the wrong words. Neuroplasticity: It gives the brain the capability of forming new neural connections especially after illnesses. If we did not have them, our brains would be…
